You don't have to unless you're trying to do Rolling Death Cradle or King's Bridge. Otherwise you can bind and mash all 4 buttons.

then you'll always get the same throw sequences every time

the whole point of those throws is for the mix up potential involved

i'm not saying don't do this, but i'm saying keep in mind why these variations exist

If hitting all 4 buttons registers the correct grab moves does that mean I can just memorize the single attack inputs and just mash a 4 button shortcut for the combination ones?

yes you can do this but just keep in mind that you'll get a single specific throw sequence every time you do this

like it's a handy shortcut, but if your opponent notices that fact, they'll be able to escape out of your throw sequences that much easier

basically, try to learn the other button combinations for when you're not mashing all 4 buttons down

I know standard 1+3 and 2+4 throw escapes were simplified, did they make escaping multi grapples any easier or do you still have to hit the 1,2 or 1+2 at precisely the right moment?

General Morden
Mar 3, 2013

the window for inputting the throw break during king's multi-grapples is pretty generous

it's just that if you input the incorrect throw break during that window, the game takes away your ability to attempt to break out of the throw, until the next sequence in the multi-grab

I mean like, if a certain throw string needs 1, 2, 1+2 and another needs 3, 4, 1+2, or something can I just mash 1+2+3+4 during the last inputs and will it read correctly?

General Morden

you can literally mash all 4 inputs throughout the entire multi-grab and the game will consistently lead you down one path

I mean can mashing all 4 inputs register as a double input, not mashing it throughout the entire thing but when you need to do X+Y so you have to remember less.

yes because you are technically fulfilling the button requirements, even with the extra added button inputs

I assume that's new to 7? I haven't seriously played since 5 in the arcades but I remember autistically memorizing every possible throw link for King and Nina in 3. And since my friends and I all sucked at throw escapes it was essentially whoever landed the SS 2+4 first won the match.

it's so absurdly stupid I can't help but dig it, honestly. The only part I disliked was that if you're a baby who wants to play on the lowest difficulty they take away your ability to do a lot of moves and grabs. :pwn:

sure but as someone who had never played Tekken before it was really clear that the auto-combos handicapped you super hard. The proper way to do baby-mode is to just make the AI super dumb or give you more health or something. As opposed to, y'know, making you unable to use grabs.

I just want to bop on some barely sentient punching bags while I figure out what all these buttons do!

Story mode is not real Tekken, I started out playing it for real but just spammed Story Assist by the end of it to get through it. Just play Treasure Mode.

The Akuma / Heihachi battle was pretty rad though I'll give them that.

drat... I almost never come across other Kings in the wild, but I know the cliche of stagger kicks and chain grabs. I fought some guy who was Brawler rank and had 120+ wins in unranked. I crushed him 12 rounds in a row and he literally tried absolutely nothing but stagger kicks and SS 2+4 ad nauseum. Like... how the hell did he make it that far with that? They're both so easily spotted and ridiculously punishable that I rarely throw them out at all.

srsly who wants to play this lamer?
I hit brawler pretty quick with Josie just by rotating through 4 or 5 different things and knowing how to do 50 damage of juggles.

If I started playing King I'd probably rotate through doing that rising knee into big damage and learning the two command grab paths that lead to RDC or dragon sleeper. Probably no one up to that rank would punish the knee for much or know how to break properly.

I played a King who did that alley kick thing and I learned quick to low parry. The mid seems like a poo poo mixup because it's so slow as well. You could probably use Josie's counter against it.

The mid is suuuuuper slow and visible and very launch punishable. Its really only good for maybe extending a combo to a wall

OK this is a pretty random question. For some background I played a bunch of Tekken with friends casually but never really took any seriously. But with SF5 the way it is and how much I'm liking 7 I'm actually trying to get better.

I've played like a zillion hours of 2D games like SF and KoF and CvS2 and whatever else, and I'm pretty confident in my basics. However in this game I absolutely could not get QCF/QCB moves out reliably. Like the DPs on Akuma and Eliza I could do no problem, but QCF/B I was real bad with.

I told this to a friend who is way more experienced with Tekken when we were playing and he said "oh yeah just try doing half circles" and lo and behold I could get the moves out like 100% of the time after that advice.

Is the timing on these inputs different in Tekken? Am I just real bad??? I thought I was pressing too early since I was normally doing the WS moves when loving up, so I don't know why half circles fix anything

For further reference I'm using a stick and playing as Dragunov, and specifically having issues with his qcf+1 or 2. If I input hcf I get them out pretty much always so I'm just doing that now but it is really weirding me out and I'm obsessing over it.

The timing is different in tekken - make sure you think about it as doing a qcf to enter a stance, then doing P to do a move out of that stance (i.e. put a small pause in). The motion is also stricter than games like SF4/5 so that probably isn't helping.
